The call to Sun Solaris 8 and 9 functions in libcrypt.so is not working
and crashes mysqld. The Sun library libcrypt.so is a symlink to
libcrypt_i.so or libcrypt_d.so, depending on your setup.
Correct me if I am wrong, but the use of the functions that can be
called by whatever -lcrypt is needed for is also internal to mysql. I
patched configure.in to comment the check for the crypt library and that
at least stops the crashes. Now, I need to know if I am ok or have lost
valuable function.
Thanks, Alex
